Building a Bike Trail - Video
The Lady Canning's plantation is a (very) small commercial pine plantation - the crop (trees) was recently thinned/felled. The trail was built afterwards.
The trail builders are very good at their job, hidden along their 'easy' blue trails are a tonne of progressive challenging features.
Just Outside the 1sq mile plantation is a relative wealth of natural technical trails (peak district national park), there has been almost nowhere for kids and newbies to ride and learn.
Not all trails are suitable for kids of all ages, these 2 are and they're awesome!

i'm 6' 2" (185cm)
the effective 'seat-tube' is about 19" - so i can get the seat up to a decent pedalling height - cos their aren't any chairlifts in sheffield.

yes. it's more or less the same as a Specialized Demo (in terms of action/wheel path/etc).
but this one's steel, and 'only' 180mm of rear wheel travel.
